Dear C4L
Member,
Today, Big
Government is set to launch another all-out assault on our economic
freedom and liberty with their latest mandate scheme.
The statists are trying to attach Amendment
4174 to the latest appropriations bill (H.R. 4899).
This amendment mandates would force local and
state governments to turn their police and firefighters over to union
bosses.
Mandated union representation and forcing state and local governments to bargain with them violates our
fundamental
freedom to make economic decisions that best fit our own needs.
As we all know, once Big
Government grants itself power, that power is always expanded and used
to dominate our lives.
Today, it is police and firefighters. Tomorrow, Big Government could be
coming to your place of employment to “organize” you and mandate
you join a union.
It's
up to liberty-minded Americans to defeat this latest mandate scheme.
You see, mandated
unionism takes away the power from local governments and individual
emergency responders to decide if they want a union and puts it in the
hands of
the federal leviathan.
Federal mandates only lead to increased costs.
State and local governments around the nation are being bankrupted by
the crushing burdens of public employee pension obligations and the
threat of
crippling strikes. And, of course, the government response is always
higher, more punitive, taxes.
That's why I am asking you to contact your senators and demand
they vote against Big Government's mandate forcing police and
firefighters to
become union memberrs.
Send a clear message that they must reject failed policies that only lead to
less
freedom and economic ruin.

In Liberty,
